Impact of Enterprise Social Networking (ESN) in Employee Engagement

Employee engagement is greatly benefitted from Enterprise Social Networks.

Enterprise Social Networking is impacting companies in a beneficial way. With Enterprise Social Networks, companies are not only more successful, their employees are more successful.

Many companies have adopted an Enterprise Social Network and many are experiencing stronger results for their business. Enterprise Social Networks (ESN) has helped companies foster communication and spread innovation faster. ESN has also helped resolve problems more quickly and improve knowledge sharing.

Tools for Human Resource Planning

Human resource planning is the ongoing process of systematic planning to achieve optimum use of an organization’s HR department. The HR department is any company’s most valuable asset and human resource planning optimizes this asset. The objective of human resource planning is to avoid manpower shortages or surpluses while ensuring the best fit between employees and jobs.

These are four major steps of the human resource planning process. The first step is to analyze the present labor supply. The sending step is to forecast future labor demands. The final two major steps in the human resource planning process are to balance projected labor demand with supply and support organizational goals. The HR department is responsible for ensuring the company is achieving their goals and objectives. The best way to do this is to have the optimal amount of staff to make the most money for the company.

Forecasting Techniques in Human Resource Planning

Forecasting is the systematic process of predicting demand and supply for the company. HR departments seek to secure the proper number and quality of employees for a business for the business to achieve their strategic goals. A great way for human resource professionals to do this is to use trend analysis. This data uses historical staffing data to make predictions about future staffing needs. Having the proper number of qualified employees on staff is the best way to ensure the company is meeting their objectives.

For new businesses, a ratio analysis is the best way to predict future staffing needs of the company. This analysis uses causal factors that can be linked and help predict future staffing needs. Supply forecasting techniques, like replacement charts, are tools HR departments can use to identify internal candidates available and qualified to fill estimated demands within the company. These charts are essential for HR departments because most companies like to hire for new openings from within.

Benefits of Having ESN for Your Organization

There are many advantages of ESN for the employees of a company. ESN enhances collaboration between employees and this is necessary for all employees to be on the same page. A great deal of time for employees is spent coordinating collaboration. ESN improves this by allowing employees to collaborate across offices and continents, aligning teams better. Another benefit of ESN is engaging employees more. When employees need assistance, ESN allows them to identify expertise quicker and obtain help faster. These networks can also accelerate the onboarding, learning and development processes for new employees.

Competition is increasing for companies today and many are struggling to bring better value to their products and services. ESN allows employees to achieve more within their organization. ESN has allowed employees to collaborate in newer ways and share ideas. This collaboration has led to higher employee engagement, deeper collaboration and more innovation for the company. With ESN, companies are better able to survive disruption in the marketplace when their competition is continually growing. When employees collaborate with each other more, companies find they are more successful.

ESN offers many benefits to companies and offers expedited processes for human resource departments. Many companies have ESN but only a few are actively engaged. When companies as a whole are actively engaged with each other, the business is more successful and objectives are constantly being met. Enterprise Social Networks increase workforce productivity, increase employee engagement and allow companies to meet their goals faster. The impact of Enterprise Social Networking can be seen throughout many successful companies today.
